Jeff Long's 'Werewolves' [Part 1 of 4] By Aragorn
JEFF LONG’S WEREWOLVES
FADE IN ON:
EXT. OUTSKIRTS OF SMALL TOWN – HILL – LATE AFTERNOON
A line of five jeeps come to a stop on a hill overlooking a town as the sun starts to go down. The passenger of the first jeep, a female in her twenties with a sword on her back, steps out and looks out at the town below. This is KATHRYN BELLA.
The driver of the first jeep, a person around the same age as Kathryn, SETH BANNO, gets out and walks up and stands next to Kathryn as she raises a pair of binoculars to her eyes.
KATHRYN This is it, alright. The newspapers explained how all contact was lost with this town, and whenever someone was sent to check on it, they never came back. This has to be that town. It’s deserted as hell and in the area they said it would be.
SETH That would mean the werewolves are getting more bold. They would never have attacked an entire town before.
Kathryn lowers her binoculars.
KATHRYN Let’s get started.
Kathryn and Seth head back to their vehicle and the line of jeeps drive off, heading down the hill.
EXT. DESERTED TOWN - EVENING
The jeeps drive down the deserted streets as the sun is finishes going down. They reach what has to be the center of the town, for it seems that every street connects to it, and there is a giant stone clock in the middle.
Kathryn gets out of her jeep, followed by the other five Hunters. She turns to face them.
KATHRYN Ok, this is it. We’ve got approximately twenty minutes until the moon shows itself. Until then, these are normal people with no extra strength. However we don’t know how many there are, or even where they are, so we don’t go home until we’ve searched every nook and cranny of this place. That includes every closet of every house. We’re going to be here for a couple days, so watch each other’s backs and shoot to kill. If they’re in human form, some may use lies to trick you into believing they are someone they aren’t. If you see any other humans here other then us, shoot them. Are we clear?
The team all gives the ‘ok’ that they understand and goes back To their jeeps to load up their weapons that include daggers, guns, grenades, dynamite, and other various home-made weapons. The guns are a metallic silver color and they look a bit more ‘high-tech’ then normal guns and they require both hands to hold them. There are also various types of handguns. Each member puts on a headset.
After they load up and prepare, they disperse in groups of two. Kathryn and an older man, MARTIN RANDLE, pair up, the ex-priest MARK LAURENCE and Seth team up, and the 18-year old boy MICHAEL CARRIE and another 20-ish man BEN CORNETT team up. The three teams go off in separate directions. Kathryn and Martin take Main Street while Mark and Seth start off down one street of houses on one side of Main Street and Michael and Ben go down another on the other side of Main Street.
EXT. DESERTED TOWN – MAIN STREET – NIGHT
Kathryn and Martin walk down the middle of the road of Main Street, guns held out. When they get to the end, Kathryn goes on one side while Martin takes the other.
Kathryn tries the door to the first store, but finds it locked. She uses the butt of her gun to smash the window in, shattering the glass. She steps inside and sees that it’s a jewelry store. She looks around the big room, not really any hiding places left. She looks behind the counters and moves slowly towards the storage room. She gets the door open and peers in to find a completely empty room. She sighs and turns, heading back out the way she came.
INT. DESERTED TOWN – BAR – NIGHT
Martin is in the first building on the other side of the street, which is a bar. He takes a quick glance around first, scanning the room. Some tables and chairs are knocked over and a small pool of dried blood lays on the floor, but not much else on first glance.
He begins to slowly walk around the area, looking at the floor And overturned tables, looking for clues. He holds his gun out the entire time, being very cautious. While holding his gun out, he walks in the direction of the bar counter, often turning around in complete 360 degrees circles, watching his back and sides.
After he reaches the bar counter, he looks behind it, scanning The aisle up and down, seeing only a few small puddles of blood. He jumps over the counter and lays his gun down on the counter as he faces the countless amounts of different types of alcohol.
Martin smiles as he reaches up and takes down a few different bottles, laying them on the counter, and then reaching under the counter to grab a glass. He opens the bottles and begins to make some kind of a mix. He turns to the ice machine and holds his glass under it and presses the button, but only warm water pours out.
Martin moans as he quickly pulls the cup away and adds more alcohol to it. He takes a sip and smiles.
EXT. DESERTED TOWN – RANDOM STREET – NIGHT
Mark and Seth are walking down a random street.
SETH You’re the newest member here, Padre’. What’s you’re story?
MARK I am no longer a Padre’.
SETH What happened?
MARK These unholy beasts slaughtered my brother. He was doing a confession and this one woman turned into a devil-wolf and killed my brother. I saw the entire thing when I walked into the church. My life was spared only by Lady Kathryn stepping in and saving my life. I vowed to help her track down the devil-wolves and kill them all.
SETH They aren’t devil-wolves, Padre. They’re fuckin’ werewolves. Plain and simple.
MARK And where do werewolves come from originally? Does anyone know?
Seth sighs.
SETH No Padre. I guess your theory’s just as credible as any other. I however like to believe the whole ‘virus’ thing myself.
They reach the first row of houses and turn down the first walkway, heading for the first house. The door is open ajar and Seth and Mark glance at each other. They go and push it open some more as they turn on their halogen lights that are attached to their guns.
They slowly step inside the dark house, the light beams dancing across walls and furniture.
SETH Ok, split up. You take down here, I’ll take upstairs.
Seth pats Mark on the shoulder
SETH (C’ont) Watch your back, Padre.
Mark nods and pats Seth back. The two split up. Seth slowly walks up the stairs as Mark slowly moves around the first floor, searching every nook and cranny.
EXT. DESERTED TOWN – RANDOM STREET – NIGHT
Ben and Michael are walking down another random street, their halogen lights on.
MICHAEL How many werewolves do you think there are?
BEN I don’t know. A lot. This pack wiped out an entire town.
MICHAEL How come none have come out yet? I mean, surly they can smell us.
BEN It only just got dark. They’re probably already on their way to us now.
Their lights shine on a big building in front of them. The town swimming pool
BEN Up for a swim?
INT. DESERTED TOWN – RANDOM HOUSE – NIGHT
Mark moves quietly through the first floor, checking behind furniture and in closets, and checking for any signs of werewolves having been there. So far not a single sign.
INT. DESERTED TOWN – RANDOM HOUSE – UPSTAIRS - NIGHT
Seth moves through the master bedroom, looking under the bed, in the closet, and behind the door. No sign anywhere of any werewolves.
He goes back out into the hall and checks the next room, with the same results.
INT. DESERTED TOWN – SWIMMING POOL –CHANGEROOM - NIGHT
Michael is checking out a changeroom in the swimming pool building, and judging by the pink walls, we can easily guess that he’s in the girl’s changeroom.
He’s going through each and every locker, inspecting them. He stops when his light shines on a bathing suit, hung up.
INT. DESERTED TOWN – SWIMMING POOL – NIGHT
Ben is inspecting the actual pool area, walking around the concrete floor, shinning his light out across the water. He goes and looks in the water and sees that it’s murky. It hasn’t been cleaned in awhile.
INT. DESERTED TOWN – SWIMMING POOL – CHANGEROOM – NIGHT
Michael goes and inspects the showers, finding the same thing as always – nothing. He goes back out into the main lobby of the building, shinning his light around as he walks. He turns, planning on going up the stairs to check out the second floor balcony and rooms, when he hears the sound of bare feet slapping on the floor.
Michael turns around and sees a giant wolf walking towards him, coming out of the darkness, head lowered, growling. Michael raises his gun, about to shoot, but he hears more growling and looks around, seeing giant wolves coming at him from all directions.
MICHAEL Oh shit.
INT. DESERTED TOWN – SWIMMING POOL – NIGHT
Ben hears a few gun shots and small explosion sounds and looks up from the water. He hears a scream and takes off running. As he does, he holds up a hand to his ear piece.
BEN Michael? Michael, do you read me?
Silence. He presses a button on the side as he runs into a change room.
BEN Come in, Boss.
KATHRYN (V.O.) What is it, Ben?
BEN Reporting from the town’s local swimming pool. Me and Michael split up to save time and I just heard shots fired and a scream.
KATHRYN (V.O.) Michael’s only a kid. He probably saw his own reflection and jumped. But just in case, check in on it and if its anything you can’t handle, call for back up.
BEN Roger that, boss.
By now Ben has ran out from the change room and into the main lobby. He stops dead in his tracks as he sees a pack of huge wolves feasting on Michael’s body, ripping into his throat and face, tearing at his stomach. One wolf even had Michael’s leg ripped off and was chewing on it away from the body.
Suddenly every single wolf looks up at Ben and begins to growl.
BEN (Whispering) Boss, I think I’m gonna need back-up.
One of the wolves steps towards Ben and howls.
BEN Fuck you.
Ben raises his gun and fires.
SLOW-MO:
The round flies through the air and hits the wolf in the middle of the head, causing his head to explode, brains and blood flying everywhere.
END SLOW-MO:
All the other wolves hesitate.
BEN That’s right - Exploding rounds!
He aims and fires again, blowing up the head of another nearby wolf. Suddenly all the wolves’ skins start rippling. Ben looks at one of them and sees that its getting butcher then it already is, and getting bigger. Suddenly it rears back on two legs and its front two legs shift and change into arms and hands. Its snout and head grow in size and its body gets more muscular. Soon enough every over-sized wolf in the area are now two-legged werewolves, and every single one is looking at Ben.
BEN Well that’s new…
INT. DESERTED TOWN – BAR – NIGHT
Martin is standing at the bar counter, mixing more drinks, having already finished a few. Suddenly the doors slam open and Kathryn walks in, looking pissed.
KATHRYN Why the fuck aren’t you answering your radio?
MARTIN (Slurring and Pointing) You know, if you mix this drink, with that one, you get something that tastes like Barf. I don’t know why I’m still drinking it…
Kathryn reaches into a holster she has on her belt and pulls out a hand gun. She fires it, shattering the glass that Martin was holding. He looks down at the contents that are now on the floor.
MARTIN Oops-y. I spilt it all!
KATHRYN We are on a hunt, Martin. You getting drunk off your ass during a hunt is unacceptable. Not only can it get yourself killed, but team mates as well. Ben and Michael just called in for back up and that’s where me and the others are going.
Kathryn grabs Martin by the coat collar and starts dragging him towards the door.
KATHRYN You are going to stay with the jeeps until I come back for you. You’re in no shape to hunt, and believe me, when this is over, you’re going to be in a lot of trouble.
They reach outside and Kathryn shoves him towards the jeeps. She looks at him one last time and sees him mumbling something to himself as he looks at a bug crawl across the ground. He then tries to imitate it. Kathryn scoffs and climbs inside her jeep and drives off, heading for the swimming pool.
INT. DESERTED TOWN – RANDOM HOUSE – UPSTAIRS – NIGHT
Seth rushes down the stairs.
SETH Come on, Padre. Kathryn’s called us out. Ben and Michael called in for back up. We’re moving out.
Seth rushes to the front door, in which Mark quickly meets up with him. Right before they turn to leave, they hear a crashing sound from the other side of the house. Seth and Mark look at each other.
SETH Two minutes and that’s it.
Mark and Seth turn back around and head deeper into the house to where they heard the crash, guns raised. They reach the back room, which is filled with empty animal cages. There is another door off to the side of that one. The two walk towards it and Mark pushes the door open while Seth jumps in, gun pointed out.
Nothing but a small operating table.
MARK It appears this house belongs to a vet.
Suddenly there’s a creaking noise and they both look down, seeing part of the floor coming up. There is a trap door there and someone is coming up.
Seth points the barrel of his gun through the opened crack.
SETH Ok, nice and easy now.
The door opens up all the way and a female in her thirties walks up. She looks scared out of her mind.
Mark raises his gun and puts it up next to her head, but Seth takes a hand off his gun and pushes Mark’s barrel away from the girl’s head. Seth keeps his gun on her, but not quite so close.
SETH You got 15 seconds to explain who you are and what you’re doing down there before I blow your fuckin’ head off.
GIRL Ok, first off, I am not one of ‘Them’. My name is Yvonne Bartha. When they first attacked, I was sleeping. I woke up in the night to see werewolves attacking people. I couldn’t believe it. My husband pushed me down into this cellar while he fought off a werewolf. Never seen him since. There’s enough food rations and water down there to last several months.
Mark points his gun at her again.
MARK Remember what Lady Kathryn said. They’ll lie when they’re in their human forms.
SETH It’s the middle of the night. Don’t you think that if she was a werewolf, that she’d be turned right now? That rule was for during the day.
Mark lowers his gun, looking ashamed for over-reacting.
YVONNE So what? You guys are Werewolf Hunters or something?
SETH That’s exactly what we are. But we have to get going. We’re supposed to be backing our team up and we still have to walk to the jeeps before driving there. You can come with us.
The three turn and rush through the house again, getting outside and rushing down the street, making their way to the jeeps.
EXT. DESERTED TOWN – SWIMMING POOL – NIGHT
Kathryn pulls the jeep to a screeching stop outside the swimming pool building and she jumps out, taking her gun with her. She puts her hand on her headset.
KATHRYN Seth, Mark, where the hell are you two?
SETH (V.O.) We found a survivor. She’s perfectly 100 percent human. She checks out. Turns out she encountered these things once before. We’re on our way now.
KATHRYN Fine, I’ll deal with her after. Just get your asses over here on the double.
Kathryn lets go of her headset and holds her gun with both hands as she rushes to the front doors of the dark swimming pool building.
She smashes the glass in the front doors with the butt of her gun and steps inside, turning the halogen light on. She shines it around the main lobby area and gasps.
The light falls upon the bloody remains of Michael, and blood splotches all over the place.
KATHRYN Oh God…
She moves slowly, often checking behind her and her sides. There’s a growl and she whips around. Out of the darkness of an opened room, an big object flies out at her, hitting her.
Kathryn falls back and quickly reaches for her gun, pointing it out. Nothing else comes out from the shadows. All is silent. She stands and shines the light down at what hit her. She sees the deformed body of Ben, his face mangled, and his body ripped apart.
She lets out a cry and then suddenly hears a growl. She looks up and sees the outline of a werewolf walking out from where Ben’s body had been thrown from. The werewolf is walking on two legs.
KATHRYN What the hell is happening here?
Kathryn raises her gun and fires, hearing an exploding sound and a thump as the werewolf falls.
There is another growl, then another, then another. Soon the entire lobby is filled with growls. As Kathryn whips around in all directions, her flashlight beam falls on dozens of werewolves, all walking towards her on two legs, in their new ‘humanoid’ forms. It is at this time she realizes that her and her team are in over their heads. The werewolf pack didn’t kill the entire town. They turned some of them. And there’s something strange about this pack. They can change into yet another form. Something never seen before in werewolf packs.
Kathryn fires, blowing up a werewolf’s head. She turns and fires again, doing the same. When she turns back around, there’s a werewolf standing face-to-face with her. It grabs her gun, while she’s still holding on, and swings it inward, causing the butt of it to hit her in the side really hard.
She falls to the floor as the werewolf takes her gun and snaps it in two. It progresses on her, and just as it reaches her, it leans down to bite her, but Kathryn reaches behind her and pulls out her sword.
She swings up, decapitating the werewolf, its head landing on the floor beside her. This seemed to be the move that angered the others the most, for at that minute they all start hissing and growling, some howling. They all start moving in on her at once.
Kathryn quickly gets to her feet just as a werewolf reaches for her. She swings out, cutting off its hand, causing it to howl in pain. She turns and runs, the werewolves giving chase.
She starts up a set of stairs, when one werewolf leaps in the air and lands a couple steps in front of her. It turns around and snarls at her. Kathryn rams her sword through its chest. It yelps, then looks down at her, opening its mouth. She reaches into a holster and pulls out her hand gun. She points it right into the werewolf’s opened mouth and fires, exploding its head. Blood and brains splatter all over her. She pulls the sword out as the body falls. She turns and fires a couple shots behind her as she continues on up the steps.
A werewolf that had been on the second floor walks down the stairs part way and stops in front of Kathryn. She fires at it, but it ducks. She swings her sword, but it moves back slightly, and then brings its arm down on the back of her sword, knocking it out of her hands, and over the edge of the stairs. Kathryn aims her gun again, but before she can fire, the werewolf punches her, sending her flying back through the air until she hits the wall hard, and crashes to the first floor.
Kathryn opens her eyes as she slowly stands up, pain visible by her expression. She looks around and sees that she’s surrounded by the werewolves. She raises her gun and fires but all that comes out is a very loud and noticeable click.
The werewolves move in on her, close enough that she could see a bug crawling through the fur of one of them.
Suddenly there’s a huge crash and the room gets flooded with light. Kathryn and all the werewolves look over to find that a jeep had crashed through the front wall and into the lobby. Seth stands in the back of the jeep, leaning on the front roof, a machine gun resting on it. He begins screaming as he lets the bullets fly, explosions happening every time they hit something. Sometimes a part of a wall would explode, or a chair, or a table, and other times, bits of flesh, blood, guts, and fur would explode. One werewolf however, escapes the barrage of bullets and lifts up the front of the jeep, causing a few shots to hit the roof and explode, before Seth stops firing. Some debris rains down, but no one is hurt from it.
The werewolf keeps lifting up, planning on tipping the jeep over, when suddenly it gets decapitated. The jeep falls back to the floor, crushing the body. Kathryn stands in front of it, holding her sword once again.
KATHRYN A few escaped through the back.
SETH What the fuck were those things?
KATHRYN A new breed of werewolves apparently. Stronger then before and they can change to a more humanoid shape.
Seth hops down from the back of the jeep and reloads the machine gun. Mark gets out from the driver’s side, handing Kathryn a box of ammo for her hand gun. As she starts re-loading it, Yvonne steps out from the passenger side. Kathryn looks up.
KATHRYN That her?
SETH Yeah. Only survivor.
KATHRYN So you had an encounter with the werewolves; only survivor when your town gets ran-over, and you manage to survive this long. Coincidence?
KATHRYN Yes. I had an underground cellar the size of a small house to stay in. I came up when I heard voices.
KATHRYN Can you fire a gun?
YVONNE Yeah.
Kathryn turns to Mark.
KATHRYN Mark, get this women a gun. (Turns back to Yvonne) Welcome to Team Kathryn.
Mark goes to the back of the jeep as Seth goes to talk to Kathryn. Mark gives Yvonne a holster and handgun, and also one of the larger metallic guns.
Seth and Kathryn are talking in low voices.
SETH Looks like they were having a town meeting here.
KATHRYN There certainly were a lot of them. I wonder if that was all of them, or if there’s more out there.
SETH Well three of them did go out the back.
KATHRYN We’ll have to hunt those ones down. We should do that tonight. Then we’ll wait till morning and search for people. This pack has already killed two of us, almost three. It’s a smarter and bigger pack then we’re used to. With new abilities.
SETH Where do you think those three went?
KATHRYN First guess would be into hiding, but They are in werewolf form, so their hunger will make any of the dominate decisions.
SETH If there’s anything out there for them to eat, they’ll go there and eat before hiding.
Kathryn puts her sword away.
KATHRYN That’s what I was thinking. Which means Martin’s in trouble and they got a head start on us.
Kathryn turns and heads for the jeep, Seth following her.
KATHRYN Yvonne, Mark, you guys ride in the back. Have your weapons out and ready. Seth, you’re riding shotgun in the front. Let’s move, people!
Everyone rushes to where they were told to go as Kathryn hops in the jeep and backs up with the tires squealing. When she gets out of the building, she turns the jeep around and heads down the street as fast as she can, heading for where she left Martin.
EXT. DESERTED TOWN – MAIN STREET – NIGHT
The jeep comes to a screeching stop as everyone jumps out as fast as they can. Before them, all the other jeeps are wrecked and ruined; smashed beyond repair. Two werewolves are there, feasting on what’s left of Martin’s bloody remains, tearing and ripping at the flesh. (From now on, the werewolves will always be in ‘humanoid’ form unless other-wise stated).
One of them looks up and sees the people. It howls, causing the other one to look up. They growl and snarl and take a couple steps towards the hunters, however they don’t make it any further then that. The hunters let off a few rounds each, causing the two werewolves to start exploding all over. Within seconds all that remained were a few pieces of flesh and hair here and there, and some puddles of blood.
Kathryn goes to one of the destroyed jeeps and takes out three tanks of gasoline. She goes and puts two of them in the back of the working jeep. She takes the top off the third and begins pouring it all over Martin’s body.
KATHRYN Seth, take Mark back to the swimming pool and hope that they haven’t turned yet. Be careful. There’s still at least one more werewolf running around. Yvonne, you stay here with me.
Seth pats Mark on the back as he gets in the driver’s side.
SETH Come on, Padre’.
Mark gets in the passenger side as Seth drives the jeep away.
KATHRYN We burn the bodies so they don’t come back as werewolves.
YVONNE I know…I’ve gathered that. Kathryn lights a match and flicks it down, causing Martin’s body to go up in flames.
EXT. DESERTED TOWN – SWIMMING POOL – LOBBY – NIGHT
Seth and Mark are in the lobby, dousing gasoline over the remaining body parts of Ben and Michael.
MARK Has anyone ever turned while in this condition before?
SETH Before we picked you up, we had this one team member. Real fuckin’ asshole. I hated him. Way too cocky and full of himself. That cockiness got him killed. Had all his arms and legs fuckin’ ripped off. Been dead for hours. Yet he still changed. Couldn’t move or anything, but it was before we had exploding rounds. Took a few shots to the head to kill him. Now we just burn the bodies to be sure.
MARK How long have you been part of Team Kathryn?
SETH From the beginning. I was the first person she recruited. She was originally a lone hunter, but she came across me. The sole survivor of a werewolf attack on my family when we were broke down. I only survived because Kathryn showed up before they got to me. She asked if I had any place to go and I said no. She asked if I wanted to help her hunt the creatures. I didn’t think twice about it and haven’t looked back since.
MARK Well, werewolf survivors becoming hunters instead of being killed is a good idea to me. You can never have too many hunters.
SETH Ain’t that the fuckin truth, Padre’.
Seth pulls Mark back as he throws a match down, igniting the two bodies and the remains.
EXT. DESERTED TOWN – MAIN STREET – NIGHT
The jeep stops next to Kathryn and Yvonne and Seth and Mark get out.
KATHRYN Is it done?
SETH It’s done.
KATHRYN Ok, listen up. There’s still at least one more werewolf here. Chances are, it probably ran away, unless there’s more of them here, in which case it would have went to them. Normally I’d say we hunt it now, but seeing as how this pack already killed three of us, we’re gonna wait for daylight and continue our search then. In the meantime, we’ll set up camp here. We’ll have at least one person on watch at all times and we can sleep in the back of the jeep. This area is pretty open, so there won’t be any sneak attacks. I’ll take first watch.
Yvonne and Mark start making themselves comfortable in the back of the jeep as Seth walks up to Kathryn.
SETH You sure you’re ok standing watch by yourself?
KATHRYN Yes Seth. I did it for a couple years on my own before.
SETH Right. I’ll relieve you in a couple hours.
Kathryn nods as Seth goes and climbs in the back of the jeep.
EXT. DESERTED TOWN – MAIN STREET – MORNING
Yvonne opens her eyes to see that everyone else was already up and moving. She yawns as she climbs out from the back of the jeep. She approaches Kathryn, who was cleaning her sword.
YVONNE What’s the plan for today?
Kathryn glances up at her.
KATHRYN We spend the day and night going through this town and killing anyone we find. Last night was the last full moon for a month, so we won’t come across any werewolves now for awhile. We mop up the rest of this town and then go home for a month. We all live together, so you’re welcome to join us there if you want.
YVONNE Thanks.
Kathryn cleans the last bit of blood off her sword and puts it back in its sheath.
KATHRYN Ok everybody, change up your ammo. No need for exploding shots now for another month. No need to waste them. Use normal ammo from now on.
Everyone does as she says, emptying out one kind of round from their guns and loading up another kind.
KATHRYN Just by the books today, folks. Nothing fancy. You see a human other then us, you kill them. Simple as that. I want to get out of this shit hole, so lets hurry. Seth, you take Mark again. I’ll take the newer rookie. You guys take the left side of Main Street, we’ll take the right. Now let’s move.
The four people fan into two groups and begin to spread out.
We see a montage of shots that include various and numerous shots of the two groups exploring various houses and stores and other parts of the town, always coming up empty-handed. They sometimes come across blood and even a severed arm in one house, but no full bodies, and nothing alive. In between some of the shots, we cut to shots of the sun rising higher and then sinking lower. We finish the montage on a shot of all four meeting back at the jeep as dusk arrives.
KATHRYN We found zip. You guys?
SETH Fuckin’ nada. Seems the only surviving one left town while he could. He’s out there right now someplace, probably hitchhiking to the nearest town.
YVONNE Are we going to go after him?
KATHRYN No. It’s another month until the next Full moon. It’ll be impossible to find him now. Chances are we’ll come across him again sometime in the future and kill him. We’ll probably never know it’s him though. Any werewolf we kill could be him and we’d never know. They all look alike to me. Unless he’s in his humanoid wolf form that is.
Seth turns to Yvonne.
SETH We’ve come across a couple with different fur color, but most of the time, it’s always the same. Fur color means nothing anyway. Doesn’t make them stronger, doesn’t make them smarter. But they’ve only ever been big wolves. The ones that attacked your town…They can change to another form. The big two-legged, buff critters. That’s new to us.
MARK Pardon my impatience, but seeing as how we’re done here, I was wondering if we could head home now.
KATHRYN My thoughts exactly. Time to leave this shit hole. Mark, you drive. Seth, you and Yvonne can take the back for now. We’ll change up when we stop for gas.
As night falls on them and fog begins to rise up, they pack everything and load up into the truck.
Mark starts the jeep, but right before he steps on the gas, he hears Seth.
SETH (V.O.) Wait, don’t go!
Mark and Kathryn look out the windows behind them and see a lone figure in a trench coat walking towards them, coming out of the fog.
KATHRYN Don’t go anywhere, Mark. It could be the one from last night. Although I have no idea what the hell he’s doing.
Everyone watches as the figure slowly steps out of the fog, towards them and then stops.
SETH What the fuck…
He trails off as the skin on the figure starts rippling and expanding. Fur begins to grow and his face starts transforming into a snout. Within seconds the figure’s clothes are ripped, laying on the ground, and the figure is now a werewolf.
Everyone starts saying things such as ‘What the fuck?’, ‘How The hell?’, ‘What’s fuckin going on here’, all at once and by The time they finish, the werewolf leaps in the air and lands In the back of the jeep with Yvonne, who screams, and Seth. It snarls at them, baring it’s teeth.
Seth reaches for one of the metallic guns and fires, just as Mark slams on the gas pedal. Between the shot and the change of speed from none to some, the werewolf flies off the back of the jeep with a yelp. The jeep flies forward, Mark’s foot all the way down on the pedal.
Back in the distance, the werewolf climbs to his feet and lets out a long howl.
After they leave it behind, Seth relaxes and drops the gun.
YVONNE It…got back up…Jesus Christ…
SETH Yeah, I realized after I fired that we changed the ammo this morning. That was a regular shot that it got hit by. Speaking of changing ammo…
Seth turns and puts his head in the window that leads into the front of the jeep.
SETH How the FUCK can he change into a werewolf!?
KATHRYN I…I…I don’t know.
Kathryn looks up at the sky.
KATHRYN It’s a crescent moon tonight, not a full moon. People only change into werewolves on full moons! I don’t understand it!
